According to The PUNCH, Ladoja was sighted at his Bodija, Ibadan residence but chose to stay away for reasons yet to be ascertained.
His media aide, Alhaji Lanre Latinwo in a telephone chat with PUNCH said, “I didn’t meet him in the house when I got there in the morning and he is yet to return when we arrived from Liberty. Until I see him, I wouldn’t know why he was not there. I believe he went somewhere.”
